Yeah, I know. That looks like I’m a fuckin’ kook. By 2004 I became disinterested in up-ballot stuff, those votes from 2004 on is me consciously throwing my vote away. I’m more interested and concerned about down-ballot stuff. School board. County sheriff. Mill levies. Road funding. Fire Dept. funding. That’s why I vote in every election.

Rest assured, I am voting for the Democratic nominee this go-around. Hell, in the 2014 General Election I voted straight Democratic down the whole ballot for the first time in my life. Unfortunately, Colorado Dems lost a U.S. Senate seat and several seats in the state house. We were able to reelect Dem John Hickenlooper governor, so, eh.
